After the closure of Hainan Free Trade Port, the first Spring Festival transportation is welcomed. The capacity of new energy vehicles across the Qiongzhou Strait has increased by 40%.

On February 2, 2026, the Spring Festival travel rush officially began. As the first Spring Festival travel rush after the closure of the entire island of Hainan, coupled with policies such as "visa-free entry" and "duty-free departure from the island" being released, it is expected that the demand for passenger and freight transportation in and out of the Qiongzhou Strait will experience a substantial increase. According to the Zhanjiang Maritime Safety Administration, on the first day of the Spring Festival travel rush, two new energy vehicle transport ships, "Green Source No. 6" and "Green Source No. 9", have officially entered service, boosting the capacity of transporting new energy vehicles across the Qiongzhou Strait by 40%, laying a solid foundation for transportation capacity during the peak Spring Festival travel rush.
